The development indicates that Flynn is cooperating with prosecutors or is negotiating such a deal, the report said. US media have previously reported that Flynn and his son Mike Flynn Jr., who has worked with him, could be Mueller’s next targets. Trump fired Comey in May, citing the FBI chief’s probe into the alleged links between the presidential campaign and Russian interference, as well as Comey’s alleged protection of Clinton. Comey, for his part, wrote a memo alleging Trump had asked him to drop his investigation into Flynn. He called former CIA chief John Brennan, former director of national intelligence James Clapper and Comey “political hacks.”AFP
